Under rating threshold (show) Hints for anyone having trouble earning the badge: (1) There's more evidence to find than you'd think. Just because you've filled the left page doesn't mean you're done searching. (2) There are four suspects in all. If you only have two or three, keep searching! [MAJOR SPOILER WARNING FROM HERE ON] (3) If the end screen tells you you still need to find a certain character, make sure you find that character before entering the last room. Like, immediately before. (4) Thanks to a glitch, you can earn the badge when you have only three suspects. This is because the third suspect is actually correct, and the game registers you clicking on it, even though you don't yet have the evidence to support it. After clicking, reload the page to claim your badge.

Under rating threshold (show) I played through once and got the wrong ending because I hadn't found the top middle clue. I went back and found it, switched my deaductions to the right conclusion, and entered the final room. However, the bottommost clue still registers as "incorrect" from my last playthrough and now I can't get the right conclusion.

Under rating threshold (show) Unfortunately the weekest part of the series... not only gameplaywise (see other comments), also the story was not that original and rather short. Hope the next one will be better again.

Under rating threshold (show) I replayed the game 3 times but i cant finish it - every time i get 'Lugoran didn't fail ...' as last hint which i can't change and thus can not complete the game. I tried it on Firefox and Chrome just to be sure the browser isn't the problem. It would be nice if you could fix this

Under rating threshold (show) Got stuck in the last room because I missed a piece of evidence. There's no way to finish the game that way, and you can't go back through dialogue options. Refreshing the game and clicking continue puts me back into the final room. The evidence that I was missing is the one in the first row, 2nd piece of evidence.

Under rating threshold (show) I always enjoy your games but i had a bit more trouble with this one. I had most of the clues right but did not find him trapped so it took me like 4 trys to finally finish the game. Keep up the good work.

Under rating threshold (show) Either I'm not so super clever or concluding the right things is pretty random. However, I really dislike getting thrown into an unpredictable one-way end-scene. Of course I can reload and then collect the missing clues, but it's not the same. It feels like having lost the game.

Under rating threshold (show) Buggy and insipid. These games are exercises in random combinatorics and have been going downhill for a long time. There's no good reason to prefer one "interpretation" over another. It's fiction and any direction *could* produce an entertaining conclusion, but hunting for the right one is dull.

Under rating threshold (show) If you're stuck on the wrong conclusion at the end (perhaps about Lugroan not finding the treasure?) you might be missing another clue...

Under rating threshold (show) I'm a bit stuck. I've gotten 8 pieces of evidence and made 4 deductions, but no one is responding to any of my clues. When I ask for a hint it says to talk to Poiroar, but he doesn't provide any new evidence for any of my evidence. I've even tried using the invitation and gun and every person/object. Am I missing something?

Under rating threshold (show) Seems to be stuck loading for me. Already beat the game; am coming back to claim the badge. Trying in an incognito tab loads fine but needs me to do the whole thing over again, and avoiding that would be preferred.

Under rating threshold (show) Yeah, I can't take/look at the second riddle. I've figured out the first and I can see the riddle attached to the ****** but there's no option to click on it. I get "I'd better not touch it anymore" and can't read the riddle.

Under rating threshold (show) You might need to test your games a bit more? It sounds like there's been 3-4 different errors that keep people from finishing the game, which is pretty bad :| I've currently got the one where I can't edit the bottom conclusion as mentioned by others below me.

Under rating threshold (show) There is a critical bug. In final room decuction "Lugroan didn't fail" appears automatically and can't be changed, so I cannot select right answer, as this deduction contradicts it and Margh says "I don't have enough deductions"(((

Under rating threshold (show) To LU_MUJA (maybe @LU_MUJA ?), there seems a way of locking yourself out of finishing the game. If you do not fiddle with the TV twice, you can do everything else correctly and end up with 11 clues. This means that when you go to talk with Sighret in the final room, you have no way of finishing your deduction, and no way of going back, and the only way is to restart the game. And it is NOT obvious that you need to fiddle with the TV twice, since the secret door in the main room opens after you get the clue from the TV. May I suggest moving the clue to inside the new trapdoor? That way, the first turn of the TV opens the empty trapdoor, and inspecting the trapdoor gives the final riddle as well as opens the main room secret door?

Under rating threshold (show) I found a path where it is possible to never ask Wooh about the United Detective Association, and it is impossible to get the piece of evidence that it never existed. Even trying to restart before the final encounter, you can't ask anyone about the evidence, so you have to restart. The weird part is that the deduction still shows up, and still allows you to make decisions, but the correct answer is not an option.

Under rating threshold (show) I think I encountered a few bugs, the simplest of which is the magnifying glass showing an unclickable spot after Sighret leaves.

Under rating threshold (show) Poiroar is definitely an homage to Hercule Poirot and Marghle a tribute to Miss Marple? Two of the most famous detectives from Agatha Christie's novels! I have no idea who the other two are though =\

Under rating threshold (show) As good as always - your games inevitably end on my favorites list :) I was was just wandering though, about the origins of the characters - if you don't mind revealing that of course. Is Sigreth just a sound-alike of "cigarette" cos he smokes all the time? Or a weird reference to detective Maigret? Or both? Is ms.Marghle kinda female version of Margh himself? And finding her exactly in the mirror room is a weird joke on the protagonist? And detective Wooh ... not even a clue about where did that come from ... but he can't be just some random guy, can he? No coincidences can really exist in a zombie detective game, right :)

Under rating threshold (show) Incredible addition to an amazing game series. ***SPOILER WARNING*** At the end when Margh says to call the police, what trap is he referring to Ms. Margle being in? I thought she was just kinda standing in the mirror room.
